Historians believe that it is related to the [[Basque]] language of northern Spain and possibly [[Georgian]].  Sumerian is known for its unique syntactic features, which include an object-object-verb-subject word order and the use of the morpheme ''p'' before inanimate nouns and non-gendered substantives.  It also has a tendency to employ left dislocations, in much the same way that some American Indian languages do.
